Flickering Stickers problem?

Archive: 6 posts


Hi there again people-things...
I'm trying to create a snow storm using painted holo.
if ya paint holo black, everything but the black shows up.
very useful.

But problem is stickers always Flicker on bit pieces of material
or when you have to many stickers in the level... so both ways it won't let me make a snow storm.
I tried A big stickers on big Holo... Flickers.... I tried somewhat smaller stickers
but it Flickers just as bad if not worse. I've had this problem for ages for other things
i've tried to do as well... it's like the game's way of telling you it hates stickers and to never
use to many or to big of stickers... I'm just not sure what to do...

Wish there was another way to make stuff like snow storm and whatnot~ :/

Antikris has a tutorial on reducing flicker, but it's sticker/copy intensive:
https://lbpcentral.lbp-hub.com/index.php?t=57505-How-to-make-stickered-holo-without-the-holo-texture

Just to make sure, you've got animation set to 0%, correct?

If it's a snowstorm with holo I'd use objects over stickering. Emit a bunch of teeny squares or circles of holo set to 0% animation and about 10% brightness? Add movers to send them past the screen at preferred speeds. When you say snowstorm I think of horizontal gusts of snow, windy, very high velocity... flickering should only be noticeable for slower snowfall... Hope this helps! More details or photos of the scene you're applying the effect could be useful.

Edit: that tutorial is not what i need.
I'm not talking about I need the holo lines animation gone.
what I'm talking about is a sticker bug. that comes from
using to many stickers or to big of a stickers.

The whole reason I'm using stickers on holo is because the other way is way to laggy.
as you are going very fast in the this part of the level. meaning I'd have to have a crazy lot of holo.
or what i was hoping to was just to sticker big holo so that not be a problem.

only other way would be to have the emiter on a follower that follows you around~

Ahh? yeah it's more like tons of slowly moving snow flacks~
so my bad. It's not fast moving snow. just tons of heavy slow moving snow.

Edit: What is going on is your sliding down a mountain at a mover speed of 10.
and it's heavy snowing on the top.

There is your solution. You won't want to do anything else at all times. Emitting multiple flakes as one piece of holo is smart, though. Keep that in, but don't make the shape too large.

How close are you to finishing the level? Because at the community meet we saw a demo of a new material, "sticker panel" which is just for displaying stickers, and I think that's coming out next month, might solve the problem. Here's the video from the meet:

@ Antikris
Not sure if that's what i want or not as sense your moving fast in this part of the level
slow Snow that follows you would be very noticeable that it's on a follower.
But i may have to do that anyways.

@ pookachoo
I know everything about the sticker material from the MOVE pack.
But I need this level done by the end of this month


But it would have been very useful.
I'll most likely update my level once Move pack is out.
